I was 3 times within 6 months in this hotel. Unfortunately the quality of services declined from one visit to another. At the last visit we had accommodation on the 4th floor, near the elevator. Unfortunately we could not sleep because of the great noise produced by the lift and by other tourists staying in hotel. The last accommodation consisted... More

Comfortable and pleasant hotel. In front of the hotel is a Mac. I have to mention that you also have a great (very big,huge) mall with all things you would have to buy: supermarket, many souvenir shops and bookshops. Also the best place where to exchange your money to Hungarian forints is there (1 Euro is about 280 Hungarian forints).... More

After looking at previous reviews we decided to give the hotel the benefit of the doubt and try it thinking the reviews may have been overexaggerated - they were not! This hotel is situated 40 minutes by public bus (173) away from the city centre, off a main road, behind... More

Who likes it will be glad:) Inside the hotel you can find bowling, pool and restaurant. If you need to reach center of Budapest take bus 173. In general the hotel is NORMAL, if... More
